Lenovo confirms Legion Go BIOS V42 issues, pulls update and hints at repair options
Lenovo acknowledged that Legion Go devices may experience a blank screen during BIOS version V42 installation. The update was pulled from Lenovo’s site and wasn’t distributed via Windows Update or Legion Space while the company validates a fix. Lenovo advises a recovery attempt (hold power for ~10 seconds, wait a minute, then power on) and to contact Support if the device won’t resume. Reports of bricks and high repair costs have sparked warranty questions, with some forum posts suggesting potential coverage under warranty and others indicating ongoing investigations; not all Legion Go models appear affected, and the exact scope remains unclear as Lenovo continues its validation across teams.
